Default Cannot see any thing in Word!!!!

Hi,

I cannot see the whole text in my document. I had a large document and I was
updating it. I saved the file and when I opened again, now I can only see
references from the document which are added as endnotes and no other text.
The document at the moment is only 26 pages but the size is 44MB. In the
document map I can see all my headings but no text. I tried to print, it
prints only 26 pages, i tried to convert it to PDF and it only converts those
26 pages.
Any suggestion how to overcome this problem. Unfortunaltey I dont have a
backup copy??

Thanks

Hi Bivragh,

Try going into Tools|Options|View and checking 'hidden text'. If your text now appears, then the problem is that you've somehow
managed to format the font as hidden. Removing the 'hidden' attribute (Format|Font) should fix things.

Cheers

Hi,
I did that and checked hidden text in formatting as that was the only box i
found in view panel.
More information, when i press ALT F9, I can see all my text higlighted but
once i press again i see nothing.

Hi Bivragh,

In that case, you've somehow managed to embed all your text inside a Word field! The best solution here would be to select all of
the text except for the field braces at either end, cut it from the field, then paste it anywhere outside the field braces. Then
delete the field braces.

Cheers

Hi,

Thanks Yeh I think thats the problem, there is a field bracket from table of
content to the reference. I tried as you suggested but the problem with doing
is that I loose all my caption numbering. My headings are numbered correct
but table and figure are numbered all the same. i.e. dont increase in number
Is there any other way to remove the word field

Thanks

Hi Bivragh,

Have you tried refreshing the caption numbering? To do that, select them and press F9.

If that doesn't work, it suggests Word's cross-references for them have remained in the errant field. If so, I suspect the potential
for the document becoming corrupt has increased somewhat, and it might be best to insert a new para at the end of the document, copy
all of the document except for the problem field and the new last para, and paste into a new document. Then rebuild the numbering
and your TOC.

Cheers

Hi,

I as you suggested I copied the whole document excpet table of content but
there was problem with numbering of figures. I inserted new figure and
updated and it is working fine now. Just wanted to know do you have any idea
what could have been the problem and what should be done to avoid it in
future.

Thanks

Hi Bivragh,

It's unlikely to have occurred of its own accord. So to avoid it, be careful not to type within or, more likely in this case, drag
anything into, an existing field - unless you know what you're doing.
